Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren der im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 genannten Art.The invention relates to a method of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1.

Das kontinuierliche Prägen von thermoplastischem Kunststoff unter Wärme und Druck mittels einer Prägewalze aus Silicongummi ist durch die gattungsgemäße AT-PS 228 476 bekannt. Durch die Verwendung einer Prägewalze aus Silicongummi ist an sich ein kontinuierlicher Prägevorgang möglich, jedoch führt die Verwendung des Silicongummis als Prägeoberfläche, insbesondere bei einem schnellaufenden Prägevorgang, zu Schwierigkeiten, da die Prägezeit verhältnismäßig kurz und das Silicongummi verhältnismäßig weich ist.The continuous stamping of thermoplastic under heat and pressure by means of a stamping roller made of silicone rubber is known from the generic AT-PS 228 476. By using an embossing roller made of silicone rubber, a continuous embossing process is possible in itself, but the use of the silicone rubber as an embossing surface, particularly in the case of a high-speed embossing process, leads to difficulties because the embossing time is relatively short and the silicone rubber is relatively soft.

Durch die DE-OS 21 41 613 ist es bekannt, aus einer Düse austretendes, noch weiches Bandmaterial aus thermoplastischem Kunststoff mittels eines Walzenpaares zu prägen. Die Oberfläche des Bandmaterials hat hierbei jedoch eine Temperatur, die ein Eindringen des Bandmaterials in feine Poren der Prägeoberfläche der Prägewalzen ausschließt, zumal sich die Oberfläche des Bandmaterials nach dem Austritt aus der Düse durch Wärmestrahlung schnell etwas abkühlt, wodurch die Fließfähigkeit verringert wird. Eine exakte Übertragung der von einer natürlichen Vorlage, beispielsweise Naturleder, abgenommenen Prägeoberfläche einer Prägewalze aus Silicongummi ist daher nicht möglich.From DE-OS 21 41 613 it is known to emboss a still soft strip material made of thermoplastic material emerging from a nozzle by means of a pair of rollers. However, the surface of the strip material has a temperature which prevents the strip material from penetrating into fine pores of the embossing surface of the embossing rollers, especially since the surface of the strip material cools down somewhat after it emerges from the nozzle by heat radiation, which reduces the flowability. An exact transfer of the embossing surface of an embossing roller made of silicone rubber, which is removed from a natural template, for example natural leather, is therefore not possible.

Durch US-A-2 928 124 ist ein Verfahren der betreffenden Art bekannt, bei dem die zu prägende Kunststoffolie in einem Vorwärmer vorerwärmt wird, und zwar auf eine Temperatur, die unterhalb der Prägetemperatur liegt. Nach dieser Vorerwärmung erfolgt eine Schlußerwärmung auf die Prägetemperatur in einer langen Kammer, in der die Kunststoffolie über eine lange Wegstrecke frei von einem von unten wirkenden Luftkissen gegen den Druck eines von oben wirkenden Luftkissens getragen ist. Die Luft der Luftkissen hat die zum Prägen erforderliche Temperatur, die sich auf die Folie übertragen soll. Der Wärmeübergang von Luft zu der Folie ist verhältnismäßig schlecht, so daß die Durchlaufstrecke durch den durch eine Kammer gebildeten Schlußerhitzer verhältnismäßig lang ist. Somit erfolgt die endgültige Erwärmung der Folie auf die Prägetemperatur langsam, und aufgrund der viel besseren Wärmeleitfähigkeit der Folie selbst gleichen sich eventuell auftretende Wärmeunterschiede im Querschnitt der Folie aus, so daß die Temperatur quer über dem Querschnitt der Folie praktisch gleich ist, wenn die Folie den Prägespalt erreicht. Dies gilt auch für den Fall, wenn, wie in dieser Schrift angegeben, die Temperatur des Luftkissens auf der der Prägeseite der Folie abgewandten Seite etwas niedriger ist als die der Luft auf der Prägeseite. Aufgrund der besseren Wärmeleitfähigkeit der Folie im Verhältnis zu der angrenzenden Luft können sich keine merklichen Temperaturunterschiede über den Querschnitt der Folie ausbilden. Damit ist aber die Erwärmung der Folie auf Temperaturen begrenzt, bei denen sie noch eine ausreichende Festigkeit hat, um bis zum Einlauf in den Walzenspalt handhabbar zu bleiben. Solche Temperaturen ermöglichen nicht die Verwendung einer Siliconprägewalze, damit diese ihre feinkonturierte Prägeoberfläche in die Oberfläche der zu prägenden Folie einprägen kann.From US-A-2 928 124 a method of the type in question is known, in which the plastic film to be embossed is preheated in a preheater to a temperature which is below the embossing temperature. After this preheating, there is a final heating to the embossing temperature in a long chamber in which the plastic film is carried over a long distance free of an air cushion acting from below against the pressure of an air cushion acting from above. The air of the air cushions has the temperature required for embossing, which should be transferred to the film. The heat transfer from air to the film is relatively poor, so that the passage through the final heater formed by a chamber is relatively long. Thus, the final heating of the film to the embossing temperature takes place slowly, and due to the much better thermal conductivity of the film itself, any differences in heat that occur in the cross section of the film compensate, so that the temperature across the cross section of the film is practically the same when the film Embossing gap reached. This also applies if, as stated in this document, the temperature of the air cushion on the side facing away from the stamping side of the film is somewhat lower than that of the air on the stamping side. Due to the better thermal conductivity of the film in relation to the surrounding air, no noticeable temperature differences can form over the cross section of the film. However, this limits the heating of the film to temperatures at which it still has sufficient strength to remain manageable until it enters the nip. Such temperatures do not allow the use of a silicone embossing roller so that it can emboss its finely contoured embossing surface into the surface of the film to be embossed.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren der betreffenden Art anzugeben, das es ermöglicht, die Prägung mit einer Prägewalze durchzuführen, deren Prägeoberfläche aus Silicongummi besteht, derart, daß der Prägevorgang möglichst schnell abläuft, die Prägeoberfläche unbeschädigt bleibt und gleichzeitig die Prägung mit möglichst hoher Exaktheit erfolgt.The invention has for its object to provide a method of the type in question, which makes it possible to carry out the embossing with an embossing roller, the embossing surface of which is made of silicone rubber, in such a way that the embossing process takes place as quickly as possible, the embossing surface remains undamaged and at the same time the embossing with as much as possible high accuracy.

Die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe wird durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 angegebene Lehre gelöst.The object on which the invention is based is achieved by the teaching specified in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Temperaturen der angegebenen Höhe führen zu einer derartigen Erweichung bis hin zu einer Verflüssigung der zu prägenden Oberfläche der thermoplastischen Kunststoffolie, daß der thermoplastische Kunststoff selbst in feinste Vertiefungen der Prägeoberfläche der Prägewalze aus Silicongummi eindringt und somit die Prägestruktur exakt übertragen wird. Nach einer anschließenden Abkühlung kann die geprägte thermoplastische Folie von der Prägewalze abgezogen werden, wobei wegen der Elastizität des Silicongummis die Prägeoberfläche der Prägewalze nicht beeinträchtigt wird.Temperatures of the specified level lead to such softening up to a liquefaction of the surface of the thermoplastic film to be embossed that the thermoplastic penetrates even into the finest recesses of the embossing surface of the embossing roller made of silicone rubber and thus the embossing structure is transferred exactly. After a subsequent cooling, the embossed thermoplastic film can be removed from the embossing roller, the embossing surface of the embossing roller not being impaired because of the elasticity of the silicone rubber.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der grundlegenden Lehre sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben. Sie sind in dem nach folgenden Beispiel für die Ausführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens erläutert.Advantageous further developments of the basic teaching are specified in the subclaims. They are explained in the example below for the implementation of the method according to the invention.

Beispielexample

Es wird eine Prägewalze zum kontinuierlichen Prägen von thermoplastischer Folie mittels einer Vorlage aus natürlichem Leder, Textil oder dergleichen hergestellt. Mit dieser Prägewalze wird eine vorgefertigte thermoplastische Folie geprägt, die aus einer Deckschicht und einer darunterliegenden Unterschicht besteht. Die thermoplastische Folie wird auf eine Temperatur von 180°-250°C, je nach dem verwendeten Material, erwärmt. Bei dieser Temperatur hat die Deckschicht der thermoplastischen Folie eine hohe Fließfähigkeit und dringt daher in die feinen Konturen der Prägeoberfläche der Prägewalze ein. Die Deckschicht weist außerdem einen Weichmacher aus einem Hochpolymer auf. Die Unterschicht hat bei der genannten Prägetemperatur eine geringere Fließfähigkeit. Nach dem Prägen erfolgt eine Kühlung und ein Abziehen der geprägten thermoplastischen Folie von der Prägewalze.An embossing roller for the continuous embossing of thermoplastic film by means of a template made of natural leather, textile or the like is produced. This embossing roller is used to emboss a prefabricated thermoplastic film, which consists of a top layer and an underlying layer. The thermoplastic film is heated to a temperature of 180 ° -250 ° C, depending on the material used. At this temperature, the top layer of the thermoplastic film has a high flowability and therefore penetrates into the fine contours of the embossing surface of the embossing roller. The top layer also has a plasticizer made of a High polymer. The lower layer has a lower fluidity at the embossing temperature mentioned. After embossing, the embossed thermoplastic film is cooled and removed from the embossing roller.
